Trump to visit UK in October: report

U.S. President Donald Trump will visit Britain for three days in October, allowing him to bypass a controversial address to the British parliament, the Sun reported Tuesday.

According to the paper, Trump will visit the U.K. October 5-8, and will meet the Queen at her Scottish residence at Balmoral. The visit is scheduled before the House of Commons returns from its recess.

“Trump still really wants to come this year, but he wants the heat to die down a bit first," a British government source told the Sun. “The White House watch what happens over here surprisingly closely, and they don’t want to create a scene for our sake either.”

Last month, the speaker of the House of Commons, John Bercow, sparked controversy when he said Trump should not be allowed to address the U.K. parliament during his state visit.
